The two American political parties have competing views of Christmas: Democrats believe it’s a time to rain socialist moneys upon people having gay intercourse with a Yule Log, while Republicans believe the meaning of Xmas is best expressed by the Baby Jesus’ own personal catchphrase, which was “Poor people should fuck off and die in the night.” (This is all in the Infancy Gospel of Thomas.) Behold, then, that during this Month of Nativity, the Nation shall smite another 2 million people who had the satanic misfortune of being born in this goddamned country, and encouraged for their whole dull lives by the likes of George W. Bush and Alan Greenspan to be content hanging drywall and charging flatscreens on their home equity credit card, because what could ever go wrong?
At least Scott Brown is finally acting like the teabagger jackhole he always claimed to be:
Hours before beefed-up benefits were set to expire at midnight, Democrats sought to extend them for another year. But they were blocked by Republican Senator Scott Brown, who said Democrats should have taken time to work out a compromise.
“It’s not the way to do business in the United States Senate, and if it is it needs to change,” Brown said. “We just found out today, or late yesterday, that we were even going to talk about this.”
You don’t go trying to pull anything on Scott Brown! After all, his many decades 10 months in the Senate makes him the main expert on what can or can’t happen, procedurally, in the Nation’s Capitol.
As for the 2 million unemployed losing their only source of income this month, let’s remember that’s it’s not all about them and their selfish desires for socialism and shiftlessness. Let’s remember that these 2 million people all have family in some form or another, and that it’s really the family members who are so greedy about wanting food and heat or whatever over the wintertime — especially those rotten little hungry children with their entirely self-obsessed fantasies of Santa Claus and a toy at Christmas or whatever. Did Jesus get a toy at Christmas? (Oh yeah he supposedly got a bunch of gold and other bribes from the Iranian Mullahs, but whatever, he was Magic.) [Reuters]

“It’s not the way to do business in the United States Senate, and if it is it needs to change,” Brown said. He added, "I actually have no idea how the Senate works, I just read the talking points McConnell and those other assholes give me."
>I just read the talking points McConnell and those other assholes give me.
So, you are saying he knows exactly how the senate works.
Yeah, Scott. I know you're from Massachusetts (known to be a relatively sane state, politically) but I was wondering when you were gonna start acting like a Republican.
Welcome the the Asshole Club, asshole.
Honestly, when this guy was running and getting raved over I decided to see a couple of interviews he had, and this guy is dumb as a brick. Not impressive by any means, but that's the kind of Senator you get in times like these in a special election. Ugh.
Oh and Happy Hannukah too!
If everyone is so worried about this, open YOUR checkbooks and start doing half the work that the foundational churches do in America for homeless..
Yeah, that's the Randian spirit! What the fuck are you talking about? This isn't about private charity for homeless people, it's about a government making *another* conscious decision to send millions more Americans into permanent poverty.
But by all means, send three dollars to provide a Christmas Ham dinner for families living in their fucking cars.
KEN, what are you talking about Sugar?? GWB made the church part of the govt.
Anyway…as I stated, since you are worried about this, then start owning up to being a tolerent liberal, and feed the hungry.
Ken was definitely not talking about sugar. He was talking about Christmas ham and plenty of it. Of course, he may have been talking about Sugardale ham, in which case, congratulations, Ken, you intolerant liberal: you just poisoned the homeless.
Charities cannot help all the folks who need help now. As someone who actually knows the non-profit world, charities cannot scale very well when times get rough. I understand you and the republican party have been trying to return this country to a Dickensian world of private poor houses, permanent soup kitchens, and orphanages with kids with dirty faces.
I spent a good 20 minutes looking for a lighter last night. Bring back the matchstick-selling street urchins!
…as a wedge for the opportunity to proseletyze to a captive audience.
Which is nowhere near the work government does to help the homeless, which is also not accompanied by telling them lies trying to convince them to worship an imaginary being. And the government, unlike say the assholes at the Salvation Army, doesn't refuse to help some people because of who they like to fuck.
Which is nowhere near the work government does to help the homeless
the govt does not help the homeless, they KEEP them homeless, and give money to illegal occupiers.
The govmint does indeed keep them there homeless, but sometimes the govmint gets so anxious to play with them that they open them homeless's original packaging, and before you know it, them homeless is no longer in mint condition.
Yeah, I bought me some a them on Ebay and them was all bust ass!
You know who keeps the poor, poor, sweetums? Financial institutions that disallow the poor to keep bank accounts forcing them to their check cashing outlets that charge huge service charges so they only walk away with only portions of their check. It is an educational system that has been attacked by the republicans for the last quarter century. It is also the wholesale shipping of manufacturing jobs that people who lack a college degree and maybe even lack a diploma could earn a decent wage. It is the undermining of unions in favor of a lie that everyone has the potential to an entrepreneur.
WE are government and we have the responsibility to make sure government works for us. When markets go hog wild, because republicans think that regulation is evil, Government needs to come in and make sure innocent Americans are not suffering from the downturn that they didn't cause.
I do not buy that undocumented workers are stealing anyone's job. I never see Americans applying to pick strawberries that are soaked with cancerous pesticides or picking any of our crops. They don't want to work in environments where you will get sick, hurt, and have no recourse. No one wants to clean offices, houses, or be a nanny. They really do not want to do hard work. Undocumented workers risk their lives to take jobs no one wants. History confirms this.
The world you imagine is only a part of 19th century fictional literature.
You're using logic on a troll. This is fruitless.
How does the Government, which among other things provides Section 8 housing without which there would be a fuckload more homeless, keep the homeless homeless? I'm talking about in the real world, where pure free markets lead to widespread poverty and despair, and not the Republican fantasy land where they somehow magically work.
Welcome back, pauletteanne! Wasn't your xgiving shellacking enough? We're here to help!
Gee, asshole, er … pauletteanne, my charitable giving has dropped way off since I've been looking for work since mid-2009! (The charities I used to support have been very understanding about this, by the way, even noting when they call that there seem to be at least two other unemployed people in This Great Land of Ours.)
But while I've got you on the phone, what the hell is a "foundational church?"
I've been looking for work since mid-2009!
———–
Oh, since Obama got in office…. Why dont you make some really horrible Jesus art and sell it on etsy? Im sure half of America would buy the junk.
Yeah. The christian half!
I think Horrible Jesus is stretching it little. I don't really blame the Christ for his degenerate followers–nor did I blame the Buddha for Pol Pot. I believe every asshole becomes and remains an asshole through personal choice and long practice.
BTW, my job was outsourced by Republican venture capitalists who bought out my employer in 2008. Does that help your non sequitor any?
Sorry, art isn't doing very well either.
Wow, really? Foundational churches? You mean like this one that literally abandoned its inner city campus and left it to rot so that it could build a suburban megaplex that was
far far far away from the niggersmore centrally located to its faithful membership? The same church that banned a women's softball team from playing on their church grounds because its captain was gay? The church that spends upwards of $1 million to put on an annual pageant that makes "Wicked" look like a grade school talent show, all the while giving lip service to actually doing community outreach and meaningful community service? That type of foundational church?"If Jesus came back and saw what's going on in his name, he'd never stop throwing up."
(Yeah, I've used it before. Funny how it stays so fucking relevant)
Elviously, so you hate the church because you are queer…
Well, Rick Warren has a church that has Fathers day especially FOR queers, since YOU come before God?
Quite the contrary. I despise the church because it acts in ways totally contrary to the way in which Jesus said it should. And Rick Warren? Seriously? Talk to me when Rick decides to actually act like a Christian instead of a self-loathing hypocritical megalomaniac.
…ahem. I'm not gay, but I'll happily blow you in Rick Warren's church on "Queerther's Day", just for the chance to go play softball.
Oh, an ad-hominem while ignoring the actual arguments! So PRECIOUS! You little trolls are so cute when trying to rile people. Go on, do another one!
Oh, oh! Now do me!
Oh, it's true, elviously comes before God every damn night. God always bitches about it at the hair salon: "Why does he have to be so him-centered? What about a little special attention spent on me and my needs? I mean, has the man ever heard of foreplay? He's more like selfishlyqueer, amirite?"
Tch tch.
It's interesting you seem to think "so you hate the church because you are queer." is an insult. Most Christian churches are incredibly homophobic and gay people have very reason to hate the churches, not that there aren't many other perfectly good reasons to hate them, starting with the way they try and get people to believe in ridiculous fantasies.
His name is 'queer' after the 1st part of his name.
YOU have an issue with queerness?? I dont. There is no such word as 'homphobic'.
Lots of 'gay' people go to churches I have attended. Looks to me like you are projecting your own issues you have inside of yourself.
Makes me think of Breitbart… When the left were calling him a 'fag'…
The ever tolerent liberals….
Pauletteanne,
You and your ilk are not Christian. You in no way follow Jesus. So, stop posing as a follower. You and your gang of thugs have taken the beautifully revolutionary teachings of Jesus Christ and twisted it into something unrecognizable having anything to do with the guy who came up with the Beatitudes. You probably do not know what the Beatitudes are. You don't follow Jesus, you follow a cult of the most primitive and hateful parts of the bible. I don't know what you would call it except a hideous cancer on spirituality, humanity, and intellectualism.
Air Kisses,
Maven
p.s. You are way out of your league here.
Thank you once again, marinmaven, for a far more patient and eloquent response than the troll deserves. You're good people.
how sweet you come across, Maven
You may want to look at the scriptures before you judge.
Matthew 7:1
1. Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. Mk. 4.24
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
You know, I'd really like to dig deep but I've been unemployed since February. May I suggest that you fuck yourself vigorously with a rusty keyhole saw?
You know, I'd really like to dig deep but I've been unemployed since February.
I thought you didnt like Sarah Palin? The hopey-changey thing aint workin fer ya?
Oooh, good try, but that one didn't make any sense. 4/10 for effort.
Hey,. Lindsay…Didnt you ask me to come and cook for you?
Oooo, I like that..Your place or mine
What isn't working for us is the theft of the value that happened under GWB by the filthy rich who sold this country short all the way down. The basket case was then bequeathed to the black guy for appropriate assignment of blame. Sarah? Yeah we need another sock puppet idiot in the white house along with more deregulation. There might still be a dollar left in someone's pocket to steal.
I used to live across the street from a church that felt so strongly about helping the homeless that the church let them sleep out in the open on the front steps in exchange for listening to some preacher's screed. It warmed my heart to see the "foundational churches" doing so much for the poor, mentally ill and addicted.
Providing food and blankets, however, was simply a bridge too far.
Those foundational churches are always willing to help the ones that they think they can convert, as long as you give them at least 10 percent of what you earn in gratitude for them bringing you in off the streets. Walk into your local church and ask them to give you a thousand bucks to get you through the month and see how long it takes for the cops to show up and arrest you for vagrancy.
This is about assholes like you and the assholes you elect. They ruined the economy, and people's lives, and now are making it worse. So here's a suggestion for you to help make the world a better place: Shove "Atlas Shrugged" up your ass, and fuck off and die.
So here's a suggestion for you to help make the world a better place: Shove "Atlas Shrugged" up your ass, and fuck off and die.
Spoken like the tolerent Liberal
Tolerance is boring now! We're just going to kill you instead. We tried to do it with those "death panels" but that crafty Snowbilly uncovered our devious plot!
Remember, EVIL LIBRULS are out to kill you wherever you go. Always watching you. Plotting your destruction. EEEEEVIL.
We're just going to kill you instead
Really? Well, ask for my ip, and know that this little JEW-tile carries a gun that is locked and loaded
Wow, you're weird. Drive-by trolling in week-old threads with a fart machine? Yeesh…
with a fart machine?
Whats wrong with a fart machine. Its funny. I like it. It keeps things a gas.
You know what? You're right, farts ARE funny!
See, common ground!
I'm an atheist. The US Government is the institution I believe in, and Scott Brown is like one of those boy-rapers who empties out the donation basket to pay for his legal defense. I'd prefer he take his government healthcare, STFU, and let us do some good.
I'm an atheist. The US Government is the institution I believe in
—-That is not a true atheist. A true atheist is dependant on no one.
Maybe your fucked-up world view is a result of the inability to perceive your lack of brainpower. "Belief" and "dependence" are not equivalent.
And you ignored my original point, which is that Scott Brown is a leach who hurts others and undercuts the moral standing of our national institution. So forgive me if I don't take your word on anything, Professor TruckNutz.
So, true atheists don't spell check?
Shut up. Just fucking shut up.
haha, that's cool. I just took a 23 pt pee dive. SPLASH.
That's nothing, I took a 53 pt pee dive for no reason.
WHAT THE FUCK KENNYLAYNE!? Why don't you open YOUR peebook and start doing half the work that the foundational churches do in America by peeing on me?
Haha, somehow *I* just went down to about 50 pee points. Usually my homies get me back up to the 80s but I am afraid this time I will be kicked off Wonkette forever. (I'll be living in my car.)
Yeah, the recovery groups we run each week with over 180 homeless people would love to tell you all about the yummy goodness and 'help' that flows from the homophobic, disease phobic hate-filled foundational churches in the downtown Atlanta area. Asshole. Also.
You smug, insufferable asshole. I've been looking for work for almost a year, making do with substitute teaching and unemployment benefits (a whopping $295 a week–oh, I am living the high life!)
But it's a great comfort to know that once that's cut off and I still haven't gotten even a vomit-mopping job BECAUSE NOBODY'S HIRING, the churchies will offer me a sandwich now and then.
Edit: Here's a novel idea: Extend the unemployment benefits so there aren't as many people ending up homeless? Yes, it costs precious tax monies. But it costs a hell of a lot less than people losing benefits would–remember, we poors spend our unemployment on stuff like rent and food, and the domino effect of cutting unemployment to 2 million people is likely to be another million or so lost jobs due to our not being able to pay for hobo beans and rent on our rat-infested hovels.
Won't someone think of the slumlords?
You smug, insufferable asshole. I've been looking for work for almost a year
Maybe people wont hire you because you are sitting at home blogging, and you also have a BAAAAADDDDD attitude.
But, cheer up. Its only going to get worse.
ALL of you here are conveniently unemployed.. Like I believe THAT! ROFL!
ROFL. Now GTFO.
I'm employed — by the government no less. Which means you pay my cushy salary. In fact, I'll go ahead and presume all of your taxes go to my personal paycheck. Thanks, pauletteanne! It gives me great pleasure to take your money and spend it as I see fit. In fact, I think I'll go find an illegal immigrant to give some to right now …
I am working full time. You however, I predict, will be terminated very soon. You should have a very merry xmas too. I sure hope that what you disdain the most, the poor and homeless, becomes your personal reality. Then you can go to one of the 'foundation churches' and see just how christian they really are.
Shouldn't you be at home being tag-teamed by your step-dad and brother like you do every Wednesday night?
I've had these sandwiches. They consist of a thin paste of something vaguely salty on wonder bread and a sermon about how evil you must be to have fallen so low in God's grace.
It'd be a poetic thing if a freezing, hungry homeless family broke into and squatted Pauletteanne's house while she was visiting relatives over Xmas/New Years week.
Got copper?
When did the Golden Rule get changed to "I got mine, fuck you!"? Oh yeah, about 1981.
Point one of the thousand points of light.
Instead of Ho ho ho Merry Christmas it’s more like Bwhahaha pull my finger for your gift.
Since Teatards seem to be drawn to fart humor, this is not surprising.
Instead of Ho ho ho Merry Christmas it’s more like Bwhahaha pull my finger for your gift.
Finally some sense of humor.
Eat shit and bark at the moon.
Eat shit and bark at the moon.
OK, I take it back, there is NO humor here…Better??
Hey, come on now. I'm sure if we could ask every one of these poors losing their benefits what's more important, they'd undoubtedly stress the need for Senate procedural precedent to be respected, and then crawl back into their cardboard box/lean-to behind the strip mall or whatever.
OT, but what the heck's going on with our Pee scores? Is Scott Brown taking that away from us too?!1?!
Dunno. Trolls?
EDIT: oh, wait, just saw mine drop 15 points. Can't be trolls. Maybe it's a federal pee freeze.
EDIT: It only dropped on my second comment of the day. I still have my pees on my first comment.
Probably some idiots on a Breibart blog getting together to come over here and silently reduce our pees with their red thumbs. I'd say let's return the favor, but I'm not a third grader, so there you have it.
I think it was an overall change in how it is calculated. There's no way so many scores could drop so low so fast.
I hope so. I like the idea of them spending energy on something that matters so little to me. Like their hard ass worker on DWTS. They really showed us!
Trickle down.
KILL THE POOR!!!!11!
EAT THE POOR!!!
Eat the rich!
They have better marbling.
mm. longpig.
KILL THE POOR!!!!
Obama thinks the same thing.
You're hilarious! But women are supposed to keep their mouths shut unless spoken to, so get in the kitchen and make me a sandwich, bitch.
And when you get done with that, iron my shirt, poopyhead.
Damn Byrn Mawr grads.
Really? We're back to the "buyer's remorse" meme? That's really all you have?
Well Brown has a point, I'm sure all the unemployed people really care a lot about which arcane procedural rules are followed to enable them to continue feeding themselves.
Which is, of course, why the Republicans used reconciliation to pass the tax cuts for the rich in the first place, 'cause the rich give a fuck about procedure.
And, after all, how were Scotty and the GOPers to even know this was coming up? Sure it was all in the Lame Stream Media, but Queen sarah says The People don't want their reps to be paying attention to that scheitza! Decorum and procedure are more important than a few starving workers who don't even have jobs.
I do believe this is what republicans mean by an old fashioned Christmas. The poor suffer in the streets, while the wealthy republican types hang out eating ham and goose. Welcome to the republican America, now with 100%republtard.
Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?!
Prisons, oh yeah, we got'em.
Workhouses? Not in US America–that'd be scholiasm! "The law in its infinite majesty, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets and to steal bread." We've come a long way since Anatole France: begging is legal! USA! USA!
Let them hurry up and die, then, and reduce the surplus population!
I can't wait until Ignorance jacks up Scott Brown and his ilk with their brow-written "Fists of Doom"!
Want will be too busy clobbering other idjut Wants at a Black Friday 4AM-sale-a-palooza…
Folks, we simply cannot afford the 60 Billion that it would cost to extent unemplyment befents for another year. Mow, that that's settled let's move on and make the Bush tax cuts permanent for cash strapped families who are struggling to make ends meet on than $250,000.00, $500,000.00… Hell even 10,000,000.00 a year.
Yeah! The more breaks you give them the stronger the economy is! It never ends badly. The recessions of 88 and 08 were just anomalies caused by tax & spend democrats obv.
Well 1929 was clearly the democrats fault..
History didn't exist before World War II, don't you watch cable TV?
It takes less than a month to spend a 1000 dollars but more than 10 lifetimes to spend a billion.
But, but…Couldn't we take the $247.93 that we just saved by freezing federal salaries and use that?
Latrell Spreewell supports your post.
I think I'm going to dress up like Jacob Marely and break into Scott Brown's house tonight.
I think I'm going to dress up like Bob Marley and get stoned in front of Scott Brown's house tonight.
Sing "Burnin' and Lootin'" while you're at it.
I'm gonna dress up like the Ghost of Christmas Present!
I'm not going anywhere near Scott Brown's house though. I just think he had the niftiest costume.
Denying unemployment benefits is even more fun than banning art from the National Gallery. At this rate they should be impeaching Obama by this afternoon.
In the "Read More" section: "Scott Brown Once Again Supports Lazy Jobless People Who Lost Their Jobs, Because He Is a Communist"
I guess now that he's got the GOP leaning on him he's now the strong arm shutting down unemployment.
Perfect opportunity for the Democrats to take control of the narrative. But thats not going to happen is it? some how the right will blame the Preznit and his cronies in congress by screaming it from the top of their lungs and teatards will eat it up and they will be the most effected. Families will go hungry become homeless and the blame will fall on the Democrats again and it will be deserved because they are spineless and never fight back
Mmmmm, cake.
if you do that cheek pop thing with your finger it sounds just like when Scott Brown pulls his head out of his ass.
Guess that's why we haven't heard it yet.
44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’
45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’ ~Matthew 25
How very Christian of them
Muscular, aggressive Jesus didn't mean orphans and hobos. He was talking about hedge fund managers. You ask them to pony up more than 15% and you'll be going straight to hell, sinner.
We have reached a strange strange place, where the Christians scream if we don't bomb and torture enough brown people that week, nor starve enough American poors. Meanwhile the atheists quote their own bible at them.
Shit. I must've taken the wrong goddamn pill again. Where's that fucking cat?
I'm too frustrated by this to snark, so I'll just say this:
Fuck Republicans.
We see dicks that say "The church could probably help, if the government wasn't such an asshole about kicking out prayer, or 'separation of church and state', or backstabbing the 'In God We Trust' insert…"
PROBLEM IS, REPUBS, YOUR CHURCHES ARE BUILDINGS WHERE YOU DO PRETEND STUFF TO NO ONE IN PARTICULAR. It's really creepy to watch you guys sing and kneel and SCORN OTHERS for no good reason. No wonder we don't trust you to do the right thing anymore.
Can't wait for Scott Brown to introduce his "Modest Proposal Act of 2010" bill. Yum. Yum.
That's true. Once those little blighters are actually born, they are fair game.
Damned Papist anchor babies.
Being from Massachusetts, I'm sure it will involve Man Chowder. Unfortunately, not quite the Man Chowder that most toe-tapping Republicans prefer.
Fuck Scott Brown and the Trucknutz he rode in on. Also.
Steadily deprive Americans of buying power while constantly bombarding them with messages that their self-worth hinges on shopping.
Capitalism may be fatally flawed.
Well at least there's certainty that they lost their checks.
Exacerbating a deflationary spiral is good public policy. –The Republicans
And by the way, the Senate Republicans just sent Reid a letter saying they'll block every fucken thing until they get their tax cuts. That's bi-partisanship!
http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/documents/2010/1...
Are tea baggers exempt from losing their benefits?
In a perfect world or a more karma-ckly correct one anyway we would be able to know of the 2million that voted republican so we could point and laugh at them for voting against their own intrests but they may figure it out the hard way or not
If we lived in that world we could ask them to pony up for the Iraq war too. Ain't gonna happen. They foisted this on all of us.
No, they have no need for socialistic unemployment insurance that runs up the deficit. They have SSI and Social Security.
Actually, for a good chuckle, read the Tea Bagger comments on the Yahoo story on the Bowles-Simpson Commission recommendations on cutting Social Security benefits.
Again, the Democrats just have to learn marketing. Declare the unemployed "rich," and refer to the unemployment payments as a "tax cut," and you will have Rush Limbaugh screaming for the passage of the bill.
I know Obama's people have done the calculus, but it still pisses me off that he decided to let his lily-livered congressional "allies" head the crusade to get the unemployment extension passed when common sense should have told him this was a bludgeon designed for the executive alone to pick up and beat the living snot out of Scott Brown and his ilk. Slam dunk opportunity squandered, once again. Sorry for the metaphorical salad, sans snark dressing but, I've fucking had it.
Happy hour begins now.
And the calculus includes the factors "don't piss off the corporate donors" and "the Rethugs are blatantly worse so we can still run as the good guys." Your metaphorical salad is delicious compared to the shit sandwich the Dems are shoving down our throats (got to use a Palinesque throatfucking metaphor in there!).
Drinks all around!
Make mine a piss-n-vinegar cocktail!
How does that go with a shit sandwich?
The GOP and the righties can now refudiate the false liberal history that is taught in our schools, i.e. Herbert Hoover was right.
I'm going downtown to see my freind Bob Cratchit. He is always so cheery.
Who knew that Charles Dickens was an economist?
Say hello to his disabled son for me.
"Are there no prisons?" Yeah – but they're all overcrowded with no budget (see California)"Are there no workhouses?!"WTF is a workhouse? Hell we even got rid of the poor farms.
But I will tell you what we do have – a bunch of lame assholes like Scott Brown leaning on Senate rules to fuck the unemployed over. Merry Christmas Jackhole!
I've been meaning to write a screenplay based on A Christmas Carol that portrays Scrooge as the tragic victim of a Socialist mindfuck. His descent from a solid man of business to a gibbering librul is presented as an object lesson for all the owning class.
I like it. A week after Xmas he realizes, what am I doing helping the poor? When was the last time the poors gave anyone a job? He then fires the ungrateful Bob Cratchit and hires someone from his Ayn Rand book club. He then sues the Cratchit family for the price of that fat goose, plus interest and court costs.
I have a dream. The American dream. That one day, the poor will be removed from our sight. That the jobless shall see their jobs removed to far away places in the name of profit. That the sick amongst us should be denied care.
This is the dream Republicans dream when they can sleep at night.
Scott Brown, in the great GOP tradition, wraps his amoral actions in the minutae of protocol and a fog of baseless talking points.
The republicans only want people to fully experience all aspects of Xmas. This year's theme is Dickensian.
Ho, Fucking Ho, Ho, Ho!
Dickens included a redemptive twist. This is more Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Match Girl.
But Scott Brown drives a truck! He's one of us!
And yet retail sales are up. Does this mean the Age of Easy Credit is back upon us? Hooray! I can't see any way this will all come back and cause another economic apocalypse.
OW MY BALLS!!!
"…people having gay intercourse with a Yule Log…"
Am I the only person who remembers the punchline "How far is the Olde Log Inn?"
I thought that was the straight line.
Someone at work told me that the loss of Unemployment Insurance was the price of being free. What????
"There's no one freer than a dead man."
All meta-trolling aside, serious upvote for taking the homeless in. Not that these votes matter for anything, of course, but we've taken people in on two occasions, and I know how difficult that can be.
Come on, when was the last time someone collecting unemployment gave you a job? Fuck 'em!
OTOH, when was the last time someone making >$250k/yr gave you a job either? If your boss is pulling in that kind of dough, ask for a raise!
Jesus was pretty clear about only helping the LEGAL poors.
Hmm, this "procedural hijinx" alibi – I'd swear I saw it somewhere before … oh yeah, this is exactly what the GOP said to justify turning down federal aid for 9/11 First Responders!
At least they're CONSISTENT sociopaths.
At least they're CONSISTENT sociopaths.
Projecting…projecting..
I believe the part about you having a yardman. Other than that, I call bogus. And I'm not generalizing here: By bogus, I mean you specifically are lying about your charity (and probably about your faith and hope).
Please explain this to me. There are >50 votes to pass this thing, but it can't be voted on because 1 dude says no. How the fuck can this be happening!?!?!?!?!?!
And where the fuck is Obama? He should call a fucking press conference every single day and explain this shit to people. Fucking dicknob.
One does not have to wonder how the Dems lost the midterms. Un blanking beleivable.
Like Kanye West always sez: "Scott Brown hates poor, sick children at Christmastime"
TOP O THE WORLD, MA!
We shouldn't being try to get Scott Brown to help "feed the hungry". He relates more to the "clothe the naked" bit.
Only if there's a clamshell bra involved.
As a Mass. voter, I can assure you that Scott Brown really does need a WHOLE LOT of time to prepare for anything. Trust me, he's 2 bulbs short of a chandelier. (Which sometimes works in our favor.)
I said it up top in the thread, but I was completely surprised by the success of this moron when I heard him speak. Were it not for the acccent, this guy could be the Senator from Mississippi.
I want Santa to give me a libo-mindset in HO gauge this year.
If the government wants to keep getting its money from me for my student loans it'd better…give me my unemployment so I can give it right back to them.
Enjoy your christmas ham and jesus crackers from the four foundational churches.
Soon your total will only be slightly higher than a Teatard's IQ.
Yo, yo, I gotcher pee points, I got the ripe stuff. I need your bank account info, see, and I will hook you up!
Well if I paid attention to p points, I would notice that i went down 60 today. Good thing I'm not that shallow to notice something as superficial as p points.
And no, when I did hit triple digit p last month I did NOT think about changing my username to sallyfield. Really. I didn't.
As one who also recently lost p diamonds for no fucking reason whatsoever, I should like to add my tongue to this below-70 slurpfest. HERE COMES DADDY.
poopyhead
Spoken like a true whore!
See, I can use ad hominem attacks too.
Christ, will you bounce this cunt already, Ken?
Oh, then you'll eventually take care of the problem for us. Thanks!
Shouldn't you be off somewhere using your gun to defend your church against terrorists or something?
I don't pay any attention to them…
BUT WHAT THE FUCK! I was 1 point from 100 pees and finally being able to turn them for the giant Slinky.
Every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in.
(You know, that actually works, but only if everyone's on board. Or at least a critical mass.)
At this point, it has little to do with trying to convince the other side to realize that every thought they hold is based on fiction and appeals to fear.
Now I write for the archeological record. Some scientist, perhaps from another world, will study the planet after it has imploded and is now run by cockroaches. The only hope I cling to, at this point, is that the scientist will learn that our planet wasn't totally submersed in stoopid even though it ultimately won out.
Aw. You are good people, too. Wonketteers are my kinda people. Finding virtual bar of kindreds here makes living in a country of neo-puritan gun owners in mobility scooters a bit more comforting.
It is very zen when you completely unplug the part that is earnestly trying to persuade the wingnuts and go right into insults they may or may not understand. It is free therapeutic entertainment in the face of insanity that is our post-rational society.
Santa Baby, put a French Passport under the tree, for me…
CalamityJames 27:29 – …and he said unto the meek who had thus gathered, "yeah, sure, write a fucking book, I don't care. Just stop fucking following me through the daddamned desert." And someone saw that it was good and started making shit up.
I do not belong to this religion you claim to belong to. I am Buddha's bitch. Yet, I know far more about your scriptures and the history of your religion than you do. I was a Christian once, but Christianity turned into something that had little to do with Christ so it turned me off.
The first and only thing you have done on our forum/playground since you got here was to be judgmental even though your God has forbid or at the very least, asked you very nicely not to be judgmental. It is all any of your ilk do. You judge the gays. You harshly judge the poor and vote to do as much harm to them as possible. You look at brown people with disdain even though they happen to have a superior work ethic and only want to save their lives and the lives of their children. You judge liberals. People like you judge people who are smart. It was folk like you who called my nephew monkey boy for saying he believes in Evolution in Science class. People like you judge people who say "Happy Holidays" when all they want to do is make people who are not Christian feel a little bit included.
Under the harsh light of judgment, I feel pretty good about myself. I can look in the mirror with a clean conscience. Can you?
Friendly hint: If you are gonna quote scripture at me, darling — make sure your not making yourself look like a flaming hypocrite.
XOXO
Hey, cunty-bitch. Yeah, you. Newsflash: Being liberal doesn't mean having to tolerate the intolerant/intolerable.
You're right, it was a left hand view. Jeez, did the way he was dripping off poor Riley look different when seen from the right?
I don't think we'll have to wait to see a world run by cockroaches. The House already needs serious fumigation.
Verily I say unto you, they have their reward.
